Hi all With the ongoing and continued closure of the Eyre Highway from Norseman to Caiguna I am looking at a plan B route. I need to be in Brisbane on the 12th Jan for work and plan to ride the GSA across. As anyone rode the Great Central Road recently who can give me some idea of the conditions out...
Hi everyone Well after a 2 weeks back in the saddle after a 2 year break it is like I never left (its just like riding a bike). I am planning some big trips for 2020 starting with a jaunt over to Brisbane in January for work. Followed by a leisurely ride down the coast to Sydney in March and on to M...
Hi Gang After a long break (for me) from bikes to travel and do different stuff I have rejoined the land of the Boxer engined 2 wheeling gang. Pick up my new (used) BMW on Saturday and cant wait to get back into the riding again. I was inspired by Steve's (Digger's) last BMW safari video to take the...

Hi Gang I said my farewells this morning to the BMW Safari and parted company with Steve aka Mongrel Dog :lol: Rode to Melbourne and dropped my bike off at the BMW Dealership in the city for a service (600km overdue). I had an absolute ball, despite some difficulties with weather and conditions I ca...
